Will,

I think that your original post was completely appropriate for 
iris-photos although I do have a soap box I get on occasionally about 
the foibles of using computer images for identification (I am not going 
there now...<G>)

And bringing to light the confusion about germanica is a great topic, 
just that i wish it would have been at least cross posted to 
iris@hort.net, so that those folk could have benefitted and perhaps 
added to the discussion.

All that being said, I am trying very hard not to come down heavily on 
the issue. I want the list to be enjoyable for everyone, but we do need 
to remember why it was created in the first place (see my other post)

Thanks to all for understanding.
